“Four Horsemen” is a reference to the Four Horsemen of the Apocolypse, who, according to The Book of Revelation, were be unleashed upon the world as harbingers of the Apocalypse. The title is therefore self-referential and presents the band themselves, at first implicitly, then stated explicitly, as...

Four Horsemen Lyrics

[Intro]
One, two, a one, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
Well, they were given the grapes that go ripe in the sun
That loosen the screws at the back of the tongue
They told no one where they had begun
Four horsemen

[Pre-Chorus]
They were given all the foods of vanity
And all the instant promises of immortality
But they bit the dust screamin', "Insanity!"
Four horsemen

[Chorus]
One was over the edge, one was over the cliff
One was lickin' 'em dry with a bloody great spliff
When they picked up the hiker didn't want the lift
From the horsemen

[Verse 2]
But you, you're not searching, are you, now?
You're not lookin' anyhow
You're never gonna ride that lonely mile
Or put yourself up on trial

Oh, you told me how your life was so bad
And I agree that it does seem sad
But that's the price that you gotta pay
For lazin' all around all day

Four horsemen and they comin' right through
Four horsemen and they're pissing by you
They make you look like you're wearing a truss
Four horsemen and it's gonna be us

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, they gave us everything for bendin' the mind
And we cleaned out their pockets and we drank 'em blind
It's a long way to the finish so don't get left behind
By those horsemen

[Chorus]
And they gave us the grapes that went ripe in the sun
That loosen the screws at the back of the tongue
But we still told nothing 'bout what was to come
Four horsemen

[Outro]
We play all your rock and roll
We know your rockin' soul
We reach the parts other combos cannot reach
We reach the beaches other armies cannot reach
We've reached the top of the mountain they cannot reach
We play all your rock and roll
We know your rockin' soul
We play your rock and roll
We know your rockin' soul
